College Football Thursday Night Oregon/ASU Preview and Pick


Game: Oregon -9 at Arizona St, O/U 68.5, 9pm on 10-18-12

Analysis:  The 3rd ranked Ducks are on the road for a Thursday Night game and looking to go 7-0 on the year, and yet to play a close game.  Oregon ranks 4th in the Nation in rushing and 2nd in scoring at 52 points per game.  However, a Freshman QB on the road in a short week could give ASU some hope to pull off the upset.  ASU is 5-1 and Kelly has looked great at QB, and they also have the Nation's 4th ranked pass defense and only allowing 14 points per game. 

Line Movement: Opened -10.5 and 76% of Public Bets Oregon Yet Line Down to 8, so Sharp $ on ASU at 10.5 to 9

Bet Trends: Ducks are 4-1 ATS lat 5 road games, but just 2-5 ATS last 7 Thursday games.  Sun Devils are 5-1 ATS last 6 overall and 13-6-1 ATS last 20 home games.  The Ducks are 5-1-1 ATS last 7 vs. ASU and the home team is 3-1-1 ATS last 5 meetings. 

The Pick:  ASU +10 @ 1 Unit (If Spread Comes Back Up to 10)

Predicted Score: Oregon 45 / ASU 38
